Life in denial...

Through it all Jerry and I and the other kids have tried to go on life as usual. After meeting with Abby's teachers last week I had to admit it is not working. Poor Abby is struggling in school, she only attends 1/2 time due to fatigue issues, headaches and over heating. She is struggling socially, emotionally and she is struggling with her weight and diet issues...so much for her to deal with. We came to the decision this week that I can't work full time and support Abby and the family the way that is needed. Abby is only attending school 1/2 time and is so far behind I feel guilty that I have been focusing so much on keeping things the sam...
